Instructions
- Peel and cut the potatoes in bite size pieces. Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper along with the remaining of the ingredients and combine well.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 20 minutes.
- In a large bowl add all the cauliflower ingredients (except of the veggies) and whisk well to combine.
- Cut the onion, pepper and cauliflower in big chunks and add them into the bowl.
- Combine well and spread over the potatoes (that have been cooking already for 20minutes).
- Set the tray aside for a minute, to prep the tofu.
- In the same bowl, tear apart the tofu in bite size pieces, then add all the tofu ingredients and mix well to combine.
- Place the tofu in the tray, along with the juiced lemon pieces and bake for another 20-25 minutes, turning them halfway through.
- I like to serve it on a generous spread of hummus, a sprinkle of spring onions and some extra hot sauce on top.
